Scarce Indian-Made Inter-War/ WW2 Southern Provinces Mounted Rifles Side Cap

A most pleasing and scarce Indian-made Southern Provinces Mounted Rifles side cap from the inter-war / WW2 period.
The cap is in excellent condition and free from any moth / Infestation damage, it also retains its original S.P.M.R white metal buttons and quality made sand cast badge (with horn/bugle facing correct way for this unit), it would appear that the original owner wrongly positioned the cap badge and then relocated it to its current and correct position leaving two small holes but these are hardly noticeable, the distance between lugs matches perfectly so done in error and not a later added badge.
The liner is also in good order and retains its original size tab this being a good size 7 1/8th.
The S.P.M.R were part of the AFI (Auxiliary Forces India) cavalry and were dis-banded in 1947.
